I'm running the same system but Safari version 1.2.4 [v125.11].

I always get the message for the installation completion page. The failure
is solid and always happens whether the install succeeds or not. It is the
*only* circumstance when I get the message. I never get a failure on the
initial installation form, or when running my wiki. Could it have anything
to do with the version of PHP I am running or zlib?  By the way...

 MediaWiki: 1.3.8
 PHP: 4.3.4 (apache)
 MySQL: 4.0.13

I am just starting to play with the phase3 head revision. If the problem
goes away with that or when I apply the outstanding maintenance fixes to
MacOS, I'll post it here.
